Chapter 1442: The Spiral and the Mountain of Bones (Part II)
I didn't like Elix very much, and with the fact that he was a vice-captain of the Holy Fathers' guard, Lisuman told himself at first that he would just be able to live in peace with him, but now, after a few months of getting along, even if the other party has a very popular face with women, it seems that it can't offset a little bit of negativity.
"Do you want to destroy these stone paintings?" knew what Elix was planning to do, and made him successful a few times along the way. With her instincts, Krissuman seemed to know that the long quest was coming to an end, and he no longer acquiesced to Alex's actions.
Walking in front, she wanted to say something more that only she knew to pique Elix's interest, and then stopped at the critical point to observe the reaction. But with this aimless dispersal advance, Lisuman's scattered aura was converging little by little.
The range and sensitivity of perception were much higher than that of Elix, and it was only when Lisuman noticed that something was around him that Elix began to sniff out anomalies in the air.
There was an extra familiar smell, and Alex couldn't remember what it was for a moment. Having been with the Holy Fathers for many years, he had forgotten a lot of things, both in his memory and physically. But as the temperature gradually dropped, until the two of them had advanced thousands of meters, he finally remembered that the smell was like the salty air on the seashore all year round. The salt that enters the air little by little from the sea water for a long time is an indescribable feeling.
"Captain Lisuman. The footsteps behind him disappeared, and Lisuman turned around, and the condensed beam hit Elix's face directly, "If you don't want to continue going, you can go back directly, there is no one stopping you here." As he spoke, Lisuman, who still had a smile on his lips, stepped forward again, his smiling face had been completely replaced by seriousness.
"Bang!" It was no coincidence that Lisuman walked less than a dozen meters ahead, when the bright flashlight in his hand suddenly lost its light, accompanied by the crisp sound of glass shards hitting the ground. Elix, who had no choice but to follow behind, immediately stopped, and in the blink of an eye, Lisuman seemed to be frozen, and a cold current around his body had appeared on his body like a white mist, and all the breath he exhaled turned into a slowly falling frost powder.
Then, something that would not normally be observed appeared in the eyes of the two of them at the same time. Lisuman raised her hand at this time, and the cold current disappeared in an instant, and her body was like a large piece of fluorescent moss, and she was also wrapped in a pale blue fluorescence for a short time. It was a film-like object that seemed to be in and out of nowhere, following the lines of her body in great detail, drawing a phantom about a third of its size, enveloping it.
I almost subconsciously looked at my feet, but in the dim light, it was just a solid rocky ground that no one had set foot on for a long time, and there was nothing except a few pieces of broken stone. One level further down the spiral, when Lisuman reacted, the feeling of no reason made her abruptly turn her head to the side, and at this moment her eyes seemed to be able to see other people who were rushing to the same destination through the layers of obstacles in the space.
The scattered footsteps turned into running, Lisuman raised his finger, and the blue fluorescence skyrocketed in an instant, and when a subtle blazing white appeared in it, the surroundings were completely illuminated, and the temperature close to negative began to rise sharply. It was a conch-shell-like corridor, nearly a kilometer high, slowly shrinking and spiraling towards the only point, finally coming together.
Perhaps the tunnel itself is a conch shell that has been transformed into fossils over a long period of time. Because Lisuman thought that there should be no nutrients in the hard rock, but there were large patches of fluorescent moss growing here.
The speed maintained the number of explosions that did not actively squeeze the air out, and the surging light source on Lisuman's fingers was like the only lamp in the darkness, not only dispersing all the light around him, but also heating the colder the air the lower he went, and the air expanded into gusts of wind, squeezing along the spiral tunnel to the first huge exit.
The downward trend of spiral rotation was not obvious, and at Lisuman's speed, until she drew a spiral that could not be connected from end to end, she felt that she had only gone down a few hundred meters, but the length of this spiral was close to a dozen kilometers.
But it won't be far off, Lisuman muttered to herself. Even though the air around the light of her finger was wavy and twisted by the heat, she could tell that the temperature was rapidly decreasing with depth in irregular proportions. In the silent space, there was an inexplicable sound at this moment, like the wail of a dead conch shell on the beach in the wind.
Glancing at Alex, who was hundreds of meters away from him behind him, Lisuman had no intention of waiting for him. If you want to get to the final point of the spiral, it seems like a short distance, but you need to run a thousand, or even ten thousand, times longer by your footsteps. It won't be a short time, and Lisuman calculated with the data of his imagination and got the answer that would take three hours.
The distance and length of the horror, but Lisuman felt happy about it, and gave birth to a sense of luck that it was rare to encounter something new. The pale blue shadow that enveloped her doubled in size, but also became more blurry. After a very short pause, she took a step towards the coldest part of the spiral's end.
At the same time, different places and different forces and personnel, at different times, have detected the sound caused by the atmosphere in the corridor in their own way. In their own form, they followed in the footsteps of Lisuman, and when they sensed the sudden drop in temperature, everyone was destined not to stop again.
The routes are different, but the form is exactly the same. The strongest of the various forces all set off, and the air that had been silent in the spiral space for an unknown period of time finally became vibrant, and in the sound of the air that was constantly expanding and exploding, the sound of "whining" changed from a state of seeming to something that really floated in the ears.
It was the only tonal solo, a sad lament, that haunted everyone.
Three hours of rapid running was nothing at all a drain on the person heading to the point where the spiral passage came down. As five-stage surgeons, whether it is the Empire, the entire Post-Phase Continent, or the Three-Phase Continent, which is almost the entire land world that has been observed, they are all truly powerhouses, and they never know the Ultimate Machines made by the tired Ultimate Alloy.
When the distance of the spiral road around one circle began to show a geometric multiple, the temperature also dropped to about minus 200 degrees with the spiral distance, and the height of the corridor was reduced to only 50 or 60 meters.
Lisuman, who had been at the front, slowed down at the end, and waited until Alex reached his side, and when several members of the other forces caught up with him, he completed the last leg of the spiral with them.
Soon after, a large black void cavity appeared in everyone's perception at the end of the spiral corridor.
